My Students

How fun would it be to create your own radio show in a studio? My high school students are in need of audio equipment in our Audio Production and Broadcasting class and need your help.

My students want to explore audio production on the next level by creating a recording studio.

They would like to record live broadcasts of sporting events as well as provide regular programming each day such as news, announcements, and talk shows. With the current budget situation there is limited funds to start our broadcast program and buy the necessary equipment to furnish our studio.

My Project

In order to start our program we need to purchase some technical equipment. We already have a mixer and dual cd deck turntable, but need other audio equipment. In this phase of the project we need to buy studio monitors and desktop recording equipment.

Your help will serve as a catalyst to our audio production and broadcasting program.

My students' work will reach our entire school and surrounding community through the recordings done in our studio. With your help we will be able to provide an amazing experience for students to work with audio production and recording equipment in a studio setting.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
